Rilwan Akiolu, the Oba of Lagos, has said that a total of $2 million and N17 million was stolen when youths attacked his palace on October 21, 2020.
It would be recalled that the #EndSARS turned bloody after hoodlums hijacked the demonstration and subsequent incidences led to the alleged killing of protesters at the Lekki Tollgate, a development that the army has continued to deny.
The hoodlums also took over the Palace of the Oba of Lagos located at Iga Idugaran, Lagos Island, where they vandalised vehicles and carted away several artefacts.
Soldiers came to the rescue of the monarch who is in his seventies.
